Time is an expendable resource in Equestria - for this is a common fact. And now, a little more than a year later, Cantor is presented with a truth that will change his life forever. With a foal on the way, and Celestia's space program drawing near, the young alicorn seems not too pleased about how he and his feelings are being treated during preparations, and soon enough, the darkest side of him begins to surface...

Everything was going according to plan when Cantor and his eight-pony crew, including a slate-grey pegasus with a tough past, set off to explore the newly discovered planet deemed 'Absencicy'. However, once on the charred and dusty surface of this oddly habitable rock, the crew immediately declare, without being certain why, that something is most definitely wrong...

Sequel to 'Your Wings Were Made For Angels'
